"What just happened, Madrigal?" Marcellus asked him. Branodn was fine; he was being attended t by the doctor. "Were you the dummy that called me?" Nathalie asked Marcellus. "That's not cool, I was scared!" He replied meekly. Esmeralda was seen leaving the hospital. She was also wounded. "Won’t you get treated before you leave?" Madrigal asked her. He gave the tape he was holding to Marcellus. "It’s just the two of us; talk to me," Marcellus teased Nathalie. She snapped at him angrily.

"Esmeralda!" Madrigal called out to her. "What is it? You helped me already. That’s enough!" She shouted. Esmeralda pushed Madrigal away from her. "I knew you had something against me, you just wouldn’t say anything!" Madrigal shouted back.

"Yes, I do, I know I'm shit and all you think of me is shit too, but last night when I called you, I overdosed myself!" Esmeralda muttered.

"Try a better lie; I'm no fool, Esmerada, so you sent away all your guards just because you overdosed?" Madrigal held he

    THE GLASS HOUSE.Gwendolyn walked perfectly in her high heels, like a model on the runway. She was on her way to the general sitting room, where the meeting might take place. Looking through the beauty of the glasshouse, Gwendolyn's attention was drawn when she saw Herveaux's door open."Is he in there?" she asked herself bracingly, and she went in to see. Herveaux was in bed. He appeared tired, like someone who just woke up. "Come back here, Gwendolyn," he said coarsely as she tried leaving. "Why, how long have you been here, and you didn’t bother telling me?" She snapped and flicked her black ponytail."You look so sexy, Gwendolyn," Herveaux said flirtingly. "I asked a question, and just stop there, I have no time for this!" Gwendolyn replied briskly.Herveaux drew her into his arms. Her tightly fitting gown wouldn’t give her the freedom to free herself from him. It appeared that this was not the case after all. Gwendolyn shared a kiss with Herveaux. Her soft, nicely painted lip

    Brandon didn't go back to the mansion after his night with Hailey. He was almost caught snooping around in her room. He had to lie about looking for clothes that he could wear. Brandon saw something in there that baffled him. He wanted to have that file, no matter what. "Madrigal, are you at home?" Brandon called him outright. "Yes, boss," he responded. Estrellia was still with Brandon on the bike when he rode to Madrigal’s house. He has moved away from the apartment where he used to live with Thomas. He sent the new location to Brandon."Boss, why bring this woman here?" Madrigal asked irritatingly. He hated the sight of her around him. "We need as many people as we can use." Madrigal," he replied softly. "Come in, Estrellia," Brandon replied. "Should I call for Nathalie and Marcellus?" Madrigal asked sharply. "Yes, please do so and call Esmeralda first," Brandon replied. Brandon's expression changed when he mentioned Esmeralda.He put a call out to them all. "Have you spo

    THE SILVERRIO’S"Am I too late to join?" Vanessa uttered these words as she walked inside Fredrick’s mansion. Aliana was already seated there alongside Don Silverrio. She gave her greetings to her father and went to her seat. "Not too late, but then, if you have something to offer," Fredrick replied.Vanessa smiled wildly. It annoyed Aliana. "I heard you were at the wedding." "I was afraid you might have died," Aliana exclaimed. "As you can see, I'm all right; your ex-husband actually saved my ass; I could have died," she winked and smiled. It annoyed Aliana the most. "Enough ladies," "We are almost at the edge.""Is the slot still available? I might have something to offer," Vanessa said meekly. Frederick scoffed. "I think you took things too seriously." Frederick added"Yes, it's still available, and the best part is that the person would be working closely with our source; he will be here today," Fredrick replied."I mean, he's not coming in here, but he will meet with us; I mean,

    AT MADRIGAL’S HOUSE. Everyone’s attention was on Esmeralda when the coffee cup slipped from her hands. "Torillio De Guzman?" she asked Estrellia weirdly. "Yes, do you know him?" Estrellia asked her leniently. "No…Yes…" "Forget it" Esmeralda said sadly. She couldn’t eat the left over beard she collected playfully from Marcellus. She obviously lost her composure and aptitude. She went inside Madrigal’s kitchen to get water for herself. "Is she alright?" Marcellus asked innocently. Brandon and Madrigal had an idea of what was going on. Judging from the picture, they knew it was the same guy who harassed her that day. Estrellia continued with her update. "He is the renowned owner of ….." "That’s enough, Estrellia" "It’s the same as the guy I asked you to check, do you remember?" "The clip I sent you," Brandon explained."The hard copy stuff," he tried to help her remember. "Yes, sir Brandon, that’s true," she responded. "You can go now; I will get back to you, or just hang arou

    AT THE SILLVERIO’SWith Vanessa’s face mustered with an angry frown, she gave her brother the silent treatment all through their flight back home. "Why haven’t you said a word since we left?" "Is it because of what I told Torillio?" "I had to, you have to understand!" Vanessa held her peace till the helicopter landed on top of their mansion. She got out angrily and went inside. Don Silverrio was still anticipating a word of greeting from her, but she brushed him aside and went outside her room. "The audacity of him!" "A bitter and selfish brother!" she roared, throwing her bags on the floor and removing her clothes. Vanessa headed to the bathroom. "What did you do to her?" Don Silverrio asked Fredrick. He was curious because Vanessa rarely acted that way. "Nothing, just some price to pay for the slot she wanted so badly," he said selflessly, and poured himself an orange juice."What did you do this time?""Forget it, father; she’ll be fine." "She's no kid.""Are Aliana and Juni

    AT MADRIGAL'S APARTMENT.The sun was out and shining brightly. Marcellus was tracking the package, but according to him, it was on the company’s legal site. He ordered that they could start their journey. Madrigal looked around to see if Esmeralda had come out already, but she hadn’t. "I'll deal with that when I come back," he uttered. Estrellia deferred that she wanted to accompany Brandon. If anything happened to him. She would be held responsible. Madrigal had enough of her. She wasn't with her men, so she was alone. He went behind her and smacked her on the neck. She passed out. "Damn! Why would you do that?" Marcellus asked, tittering. "Problem solved, simply!" Nathalie yelled. She dragged her inside and tied her down."We can go now." They mounted the power bike and left. Madrigal took off at a high speed. He bent easily, like he was on a motorcycle race. They got to the location before the company. "We should hide, boss; when we see them passing, you’d come out." "Wear

    THE FIVE WELCOME YOU.A dark stratum of arranged spots filled with humans wearing scary masks. Chanting insignificantly. Brandon seemed rather little, as they were all hanging from a four-meter-high strata."Your proof has been cleared, Cedrick Ramirez Soriano! "THE FIVE WELCOME YOU!" they chorused heinously. Brandon was called forward to receive his mask. They placed the mask on a glass platter. They also stained it with blood. "You ascended with blood and agreement; you will relinquish your reign with blood and agreement.""You have three days to decide; after that, you will never be able to leave the family."They all paused. Brandon was confused; he didn’t know what to say. Everything unfolded like some fictional drama that was far from reality. "Speak, Cedrick Ramirez Soriano!" the five commanded."I accept it; I don’t think I need anymore than three days to think about a thing," Brandon replied. "It’s the rules, and they must be followed." The five echoed."Fine, as you w

    EMERGENCY."Why didn’t you answer my call, princess?" Torillio asked her softly. "Sorry, I was with my friends, and it was loud," Vanessa responded."Fredrick said you accepted my offer, but I wanted to hear it from you," Torillio said, puffing on his cigar.Vanessa stepped away from him. "Why are you moving that far?" he asked her absently. "The smoke," she said, sweeping her hands through the air."Are you asthmatic?" he asked her rousingly. "No, I just don’t smoke," she replied. Torillio stared at her, unimpressed. He crunched the cigarette and tossed it into the ashtray."I will be giving you detail about your work. "You will be by my side at every meeting and may well represent me if necessary," Torillio stated."Strictly business?" Vanessa asked with a grimace. "Hmm.. bold of you to assume, you should actually, but for now, Torillio isn’t interested," he poured some wine for himself."Are you allergic to drinking, too?" He asked Vanessa. "I never said I was allergic to anything!

    How we ended

    THREE YEARS LATER. Brandon brushed his long golden hair to one side as he carried a little girl with curled blonde hair in his arm as a young, tall boy stood next to him. "Mummy," the little girl said, forcing herself down into his strong arms to greet a woman who seemed to have attracted her attention. "Vanessa, we missed you." Brandon hugged and kissed her. "It was just three days; stop acting like I spent the whole year away, and it was fun—sure, you don't want us to come together with you?" she asked, leaning on his strong arms. "Take care of the kids; I need to go now." Brandon planted a kiss on her head. "Keep the family safe till Daddy returns!" he said, roughening the young boy’s hair. "Please be safe; we’ll be waiting for you at home." Vanessa kissed him, and he smacked her ass. "Stop—the children are here!" Brandon entered the garage at the back of the building. Dragging out a black power bike parked at the edge of the wall, he covered the helmet and start

    BRANDON. "When we get to the glass house, go back to Manila and make sure none of our men are left behind; this is my home; I’ll be fine," Brandon said to the pilot. "No, boss, I’ll protect you with my life; Estrellia, Madrigal, and Nathalie are there; I can vouch they’ll protect Vanessa and our men," he responded baravely. "Then stop here; I want to go in unnoticed," Brandon commanded. He told the pilot the signal to give if he needed him to return for him. I discovered something strange and haven’t confirmed it, but right now you’re the only one I can trust. I am on my way from death to life, whatever comes up. At least one of us deserves to know the truth. Meet me at the glass house. The truth lies there. Brandon read the text. Olvido sent him the second time. He tried opening the gates, but no one was there, and he got in by himself, which was strange. The lounge room was also opened. He got in quietly when he noticed some movements. "Where are you, Olvido?" He

    TO DIE FOR LOVE

    MADRIGAL. "How do I find her easily without getting spotted? Madrigal brooded, sreching, with his eyes all over the place as he hid behind a door. Leaving the room where Brandon was fighting with Frederick and Torillio was hard, but he knew he would be fine without him.A masked man snooping around for any intruder stepped into Madrigal’s trap. He zapped his neck from behind and slid him behind the door with him. "Sorry man—I need your uniform and this shady mask.""Vanessa!" "Vanessa!! Vaa—" "What are you doing here?" He alarmed, running to meet injured Brandon, forcefully dragging himself as he continued fending off RAD and Torillio’s men. "We walked into a trap; Fredrick is not RAD; Torillio was also fooled, and he’s fighting. I called our men; they’ll be arriving a bit late; they blew up my airline." Brandon’s breathing was over his chest. His leg was bleeding, and he tied it with a piece of cloth.Madrigal felt so much pity for him. He had gone through hell, and now w

    ANDALLIO. “You’re uselss, you’re fat and dumb”“You can’t even lift yourself and you think I need your help?” “You’re a failure! You failed at everything,” “Get out of my head!” Andallio wailed smashing the glass of liquor in his hand against the telivison screen in his room. He walked down to the swimming pool at the lass house. “It is over, I won, they’ll kill theirseleevs and destroy it all—and me Andallio Ramirez will become the owner of it all,” He mused with a smile and leaped inside the pool. The perfecet plan crossed his mind after his call to Brandon. Torillio and Arturo would become a menace to him in the future if he helped them get what they wanted form Brandon. Fredrick was also he sore he was planning to remove at all cost. When he was calm form the drugs he gave him, Andallio made him an irresistible offer. The revenge he has always wanted to have on Brandon for dragging the face of the Silverrio’s in the mud and running his family. Fredrick’s ego

    BRANDONThe call with RAD seemed so unreal and strange. Brandon needed more answers. "How did she end up with him?" He asked his team to work hard to track down the number. They were back at the mansion, but he didn't stay."Where is Esmeralda?" Is she in the mansion?" he asked Natahlie. "Yes boss, I guess they’re packing, but they haven’t left.He raced up to his room to get the original documents from his safe. "Do you think she’ll talk if we give her?" Madrigal asked him closely, knowing how important it was to his plans. "My child, I need to confirm if it’s true; I can save Vanessa, but if he’s really pregnant, the babay might die; you know RAD, he’s brutal; I’ll do anything to save my child," Brandon responded, picking it up and closing the safe. "Esmeralda, come; we should have a word before you leave; your mother can leave," Brandon roared. Esmerald didn’t respond; she kept rolling her travel bag behind Hailey.

I'll hit him with every inch of my strength," he holererd lifitntg his heart in his voice. "I won’t let Lamar’s death slide, they knew he was coming for me, they killed him right before me and I couldn’t do a thing," Brandon packed his hair with his hands and faced up to the rain.

" This is what will happen to anyone who goes against me, I can’t wait to see Fredricks’ reaction when he watches this—" he chocked, laughing. Where's the tape?" he asked worriedly and the gave it to him. Lamar was so close to handling it over o him and he ad ot take aderastic step to get him out. " Pople will do anything for money, do you believe that my last minute genius plan wanst a oart of my plan?" he asked his men beaming with pride.

    UNWAVERING

    TORILLIO. The thunder struck strongly; the cloud was darkened, and it rained heavily. Torillio lurked on the balcony on top of his house looking at the other houses in the street and the lightened up neighborhood. " I used to enjoy these," he whispered, puffing out smoke. "That phone, I found with Anton, Olvido's right-hand man, the one I almost got framed for him murder, linked with RAD, the phone repairer was found dead and the phone is missing, you caused it, I couldn't monitor him" "Arturo—you made a stupid mistake. Do I have to do everything for you?" he asked him insignificantly. Arturo was drenched, sitting in the rain. "Sorry about that. It's all gone now. Whatever happened with RAD and Anton, I think you should let it go; The girl is safe, and with me, did you take care of Olvido?" he asked him, rolling up another stunk of weed. He looked up to see Arturo, as he didn’t give a response to the question he asked him. "Cat caught your tongues, old friend? Do you rem

    DYING MOMENTS

    BRANDON.Brandon stuck his hand out in traffic. It was raining under the cloudless, serene sky. " It looks so peaceful—the kind of life I cherish is near, I can feel it," he said to Madrigal, sitting next to him in the driver's seat. "Yes Brandon—about that man, Lamar, don’t you think he’s dangerous? I didn't want you to see him," Madrigal streched adjusting his seat to fit his back, as the lane they were on wasn't moving.Lamar had met them at home earlier, before they set out. He claimed to he came there to deliver some packages to Hailey but she wasn't home. He then went ahead to ask Brandon’s men that he seeked audience with the boss." I don't think he is—and he looks familiar I just can’t fugure it out," Brandon responded as he gleaned over the car’s window. " Jordan, don’t you think he’s hdidng something? He just menstioned only Hailey—I know she’s connected to RAD but do you think he would send that much men just to defend her?" Brandon questioned him. The thouts
